A little kiss

 Sometimes you want to add a bit of romance to a card without the usual red or pink. And sometimes you like to use your cute House Mouse stamp that has been waiting far too long in the drawer. All the ingredients for a lovely card with a bit of romance, some cuteness and a lot of fun!

I stamped the House Mouse on white PaintOn cardstock and colourized it with Derwent Coloursoft pencils. I used an old heart-shaped piece of cardstock to draw a heart on it. The House Mouse stamp is a golden oldie: Stampa Rosa, Santa Rosa, House Mouse 241 Best Friends. 

I stamped the hearts (PSX 9-2229) with pink Versamagic ink on kraft cardstock, also PaintOn, and added some white and black with the same pencils. The last step is to glue the heart on the card. 

Challenges:

- We Love Stamping - February Challenge - Romance or AG

- Stamping Sensations - February Challenge - Animals, Birds and Creatures or AG

Thank you for watching!

    What a sweet card Carol - a fabulous image and so beautifully used - your stamped background is the perfect complement to the focal point.
    Thank you for sharing this with us at We Love Stamping, and using the theme
    Blessings
